Being Good

              I sometimes feel  Life is just a journey where there are some stops which we call Success. These are the stops where we relax and refresh ourselves for the rest of the journey. Life is about moving on but rukne kaa nahin yes we can have some stops to relax and chill actually. Even nature also have designed us in such a way that we need to always move. We can't stop. If we become lazy and stop , we become Fat, we look ugly, we become tensed BP, Sugar bla bla all come to us. Even nature also never stops neither the Earth nor the Air all move. And while we move we meet people in our journey.  We tend to remember some people and forget many or want to forget many. We remember all good people who make us laugh making us happy and we try to forget people who give us bad moments. Like an old man whom I met in my journey from Bbubaneswar to Berhampur who was so friendly and gave me tips to improve my eyesight hady tips you know, Or that small child in Berhampur Railway station helping her mother  while his father was completely drunk and out of his mind, teaching me some small lessons of responsibility. Yeah it may be impractical for some of us in today's world to be always good but still at least knowing the importance of being good is enough for now I would say.  Anyway being only good is also boring but that is being funny than being Bad.

       I remember in my school days I had a teacher her name was Sister Soumyaa. I can't forget her, No No not because of her beauty ;) but it was because she had once failed me in English language subject for 1/2 marks and it was the only subject I failed in that unit test and I was going to pass for the first time after a long long time in my class. Well it happened for good after that anyway ;) I did not fail much after that. Sister Soumya was a good story teller she knew how to add right amount of spices to make the story interesting. She had once said in our moral science class that its tough to be good but still you should always be good. I was just laughing within myself as I used to feel its so easy to be good. Because for me at that time it was just to say truth, do the homework,  say namaste to everyone thats it and you are good always. Though I used to sometimes stand outside for not completing homework. But the older we get this becomes tough. I see many people now are so used to do bad things for which they regret for doing and still they reluctantly do it. They have no escape. But they all look successful but don't know do not appear happy to me. I see many small people doing small things, still always carrying a smile on there face always happy.  I remember the rickshaw wala who used to leave me to school in my childhood he actually had Filaria having a swollen foot and it looked like he should be in pain but he used to joke a lot in the road he had many friends all his friends will wave him and say "RAAM RAAM" to him. I used to feel that I am going in a very proud rickshaw where everyone salutes the driver who is driving my Rickshaw. It was fun. My mother says I cried for nearly  1 year to not to go to school may be after  1 year I started to go in Rickshaw. Even now when I return to Titilagarh and reach the railway station and if he is standing infront of the railway station. He will come voluntarily to me he is old now he will come to me taking my bag to his rickshaw and just say lets go I feel so happy to see him. He will take me to my house and say me,"what son remember me ? ". I will say,"Yes". He then asks about the other person who used to go with me in the rickshaw. I feel so happy talking about those old days. I feel he was just doing his business he made me feel good so that I goto school and he gets his monthly salary always. Always being good works. That used to happen during my college time I used to forget all my assignments, project works, Fights with friends and everything and feel happy just because of the goodness of this person imagine if he takes attitude and doesn't recognize me at all everybody is sad in that way, NO good !

     That’s what I think that this world has really successful people who are making our world grow and earning all the country's big profits but finally it is always a person who works for  the benefit of the people that helps us stay happy. Though Successful people appear to all but this world is actually lead by good people though they do not appear in front of everyone. A good bus driver, a good cook in a Hotel, a good teacher or a good business man are the persons who actually are moving this World of ours and making a livable environment to live.  There are many people who do good things and just go away.  They get unnoticed. Sometimes it’s a good theory to do all the good work and forget it and put all the credits in some box and throw it. Its good to be good.
